Default [FYI] Varrstoen 222 Fitment On Sport Brakes

whats up everyone

we decided to do some test fitting of the Varrstoen 222 on a 370z that was equipped with the Sport Brake package, in this case a 370z Nismo

for the 370s that have the big brakes, Varrstoen's recommended fitment of 19x9.5 +22 Front will not work, they wont clear the brakes

therefore we decided to try out the 19x9.5 +12 to see if it would fit and here are our results:
  1. the +12 will clear the brakes
  2. it is a "poke" fitment, the edge of the wheel goes outside the fender about 1/4 of an inch
  3. dependent on how much the car is lowered the wheels will gain naturally induced camber allowing the wheel to tuck more into the fender
  4. the rear fitment is flush, but to match the fitment on the front we suggest a 10mm spacer to match the front's "poke" fitment

something to take into account about our test:

the tire on the wheel tried was a Toyo Proxes R888 265/30/19, for this fitment to work a 245 tire width would be necessary

we had these 265 tires already mounted on the wheels because they were on our EVO already so we decided to try them on

here are the pics of the fitment:
